Abstract

ABSTRACT   The potentials of Adansonia digitata root (ADRP) and stem powders (ADSP) and the stem activated carbon (ADSAC) for adsorption of Pb2+, Cd2+, Cu2+ and Co2+ from aqueous solutions were investigated. The activated carbon was prepared via chemical activation using ZnCl2 as the activating agent. Physico-chemical analysis of the adsorbents (ADRP, ADSP and ADSAC) showed the moisture contents (< 20 %), volatile matter (9.2 - 11.2 %), ash content showed < 5.0 %, fixed carbon (68 - 81.0 %), pore volume (3.0 - 4.0x10-3 m3 /g), bulk density (0.19 - 0.38 gml-1 ) and conductivity (221 - 301 µS/c…
